Unnale Unnale

“God created men first. So that means men are superior “. “ There is a need for trial before perfection. So obviously women are a cut above and perfect than men “ – This is how the story of “Unnale Unnale” – a film by Jeeva begins. After creating much waits, the film has hit the screen on Tamil New Year.
The spat between who is superior is carried out through out the movie by Karthik (debut Vinay) and Jhansi (Sadha). “Love at first sight “ still being adopted in Tamil movies is no exception for Karthik to fall in love with Jhansi. Their love blossoms with much of Jhansi’s doubts and expectations troubling Karthik who loves to enjoy his life.
So at one point of time they both take their own roads.
Karthik is sent on an assignment to Australia where on his trip he meets Deepika (debut Tanisha) who is friendly, bubbly and too cool for a gal. Jhansi and Deepika work for the same firm. The triangle love story begins here when Deepika falls in love with Karthik.
With not much twists and turns Jhansi still never lets her ego go off, but goes off from Karthik.
The story tries to adopt many scenes and portrayals from some bollywood movies. Raju Sundaram and Srinath whose glimpse in the first few minutes of the movie along with the hero make us conjure up the three friends of “Dil Chahta hai “ – The same funky, cool guys who ever like to have fun and hang out with girls.
Jhansi’s portrayal in the movie as a solemn, somber girl and Karthik asking her to smile and live life every moment creates nostalgic reminiscences of “Kal ho na ho”.
Cast and Crew:
Sadha has no role in the movie other than fighting, arguing with karthik or staring at the camera irately. Tanisha who has done her part well needs some applause, but Kollywood is not the right place for her. Vinay doesn’t create a sense amidst the audience that he is a debut, the music of Harris Jeyaraj and picturization of songs and scenes shooted at Australia are good. “June ponal “ definitely needs a good round of applause.
With an out of the blue climax, though a normal one, the film with rich scenes which doesn’t stay in our minds after 3 hours could be described as “A fad not worth for a movie. “
